The Mother

Bundle Type

$--.--
  • Coming soon...

    The Mother was designed for the Breadboard Butler, but I'm working on specially designed module 'cradles' for breadboard modules from other companies too. (I think I'll start with the Wampler BB-1)

    As I get the designs worked out, I'll post FREE STL files to this page.

    Got a suggestion for a module that might work nicely with The Mother? Let me know!

About The Mother

The MOTHER is a companion rig, sold as a quick-to-assemble DIY kit, that brings the functionality of the HA! Labs Breadboard Butler (or similar breadboard modules from other brands) to a breadboarding platform that makes swapping projects as easy as changing sheets of paper in a three ring binder.

After attaching your Butler (or other module) to the cradle, patch your module's power and signal I/O to the labeled socket just below. The MOTHER then routes these to both the LEFT and RIGHT sockets that flank the breadboard loading zone. Use these LEFT and/or RIGHT sockets to feed your breadboard and off you go.

When you're done with your breadboard project, or when you need to switch to something new, mid-project, instead of ripping it up to clear your breadboard, just disconnect the patches from the LEFT/RIGHT sockets, release the little spring clips, and lift off your breadboard (parts still inserted) to replace it with a fresh one.
